CNY.
I have been a sick weakling for the whole of Chinese New Year..
What a “wonderful” opening to welcome the arrival of the rat year.
First day of CNY:
1. Lack of sufficient sleep (that should be normal, i know)
2. Commencement of TTOTM aka that thing of the month (how freaking suay can I get??)
3. My grandma went back to hospital
4. My aunts and mummy were crying during CNY (can you imagine crying on a festive occasion??)
5. I was freaking sick and felt like shit towards the end of the day, awarded with a fever, sore throat, cough and let’s not forget the nose block.
6. My head hurts like mad.
7. My body is aching all over.
All symptoms showing I am getting old.
And seriously, I never ate any CNY goodies since first day of CNY. Totally no appetite and felt like shit.
The only consolation I had is probably the angbaos.. But so what?
My aunt was passing money to my grandma, when she replied “Why would I need money?” using all her strength she could muster to form that sentence.
Just give back her health… which seems impossible.. as the days goes by.
This was the “best” CNY that I couldn’t ask for “more”…
